DKNOUNClNG ST. JOHN.
A Breezy Time in the Kansas LegisIa.
ture.

TOPEKA, Feb. 25.-A bill changing the
name of st. John county to Logan passed
the House of Representatives this morn.
ing by vote Of "a to 81 The county
was named in honor Of John p. st. John,
late Prohibition candidate for President,
who at the time the county was named
was the Republican Governor of Kansas.
Several violent speeches were made,
among the most bitter being that by
Speaker Smith, who declared that ST.
John was a hypocrite. and that he
jumped the prohibition hobby to ride
into office. He said the Republican
party has raised Ss.J ohm from the insig
nticant position of third-rate Kansas
lawyer to Governor of the State, and
failing to be elected this time he played
the part OF traitor. He hoped that the
name of the man whose Infamous treach-
cry to his party had elected Democratic
President could be obliterated from the
history OF Kansas forever. OF the "a
who voted for the bill, II were Demo-
Gratis, and Democrats voted against the
bill. The radical Prohibitionists were
about equally divided. The bill has al
ready passed the Senate, and it received
the Governors signature to-day.

Rigney's Partner.

A party Of four Miles City bloods
were standing on the depot platform
yesterday morning as the train from
the west was waiting to start. When
q stranger stepped off Of the cars and
approached the group and very
courteously remarked "You have q
tough town here" "Not very" said
one, "why?" 20, because you fellers
hung q partner of mine out here some
time ago." "Who was that?n en-.
quired one. "Kigney, don't you re-
member" There was . sudden
movement towards The said stranger,
and fierce voice exclaimed.
what! were you q partner Of that
cuss?" The stranger seemed non.
plussed for an answer and very meek.
ly replied, "No, no; 1 wasn't exactly
q partner, but I lived next door to his
folks In 81. Paul." and In seeming
extenuation for his rash declaration
said "Well, he ought 10 have been
hung for he served a term In the pen
for killing q man before that" by
the way" says r. to his companions,
when is that fellow to be buried that
was hung out In the Park last night?"
But the conversation had lost Its inter.
est to the travelling pilgrim and he
suddenly became very much interest
ed In the electric light. When the
bell rang for the trains departure the
stranger very nimbly got aboard and
rs the train pulled out he was greeted
with cries Of Goodbye, Rigney." II
lie supposed that 500 would be no in
ducement for the traveller to stop yer
here one train.

Small Business.

The Reverends Small.Jones are 0p.

playing Of games on Sunday. but their
objections arise from no motives OF

t~erferes with the cash receipts Of their
Sunday show. and for this reason falls
under the ban OF their condemnation.
In this advanced age there can be no
valid objection 10 the stheletic sport
of base ball whether played on Sunday
or Monday. The audiences are as or.
derby a. at any outdoor gathering and
decidedly more 80 than ut the camp
meeting diversions conducted by
Small-JoDes. Intoxicants are barred
and good order maintained. and ex-
cept that the desire to wager on the re-
suit Is engendered, there is absolutely
nothing Objectionable in the game for
any day In the week. But can the
same be said OF the TRADES Of abuse
and the outpourings of self-adulation
that these self-sppointed censors of
public morals favor their audience
